How can I start connecting to the service in Bogotá?
Start with the Become a driver option on this page and ask to speak with a Yango partner about the next steps. Yango Pro is the app associated with the driver side of the service. A partner can explain its current process and the conditions that apply to your situation. Do not assume that sending an enquiry confirms acceptance or creates a transport arrangement.
Why might a partner driver consider Yango Pro?
Yango Pro provides a way to connect with the Yango information service and is described on the current page as technology for planning routes. If that fits how you prefer to organise trips, ask a partner to show you the current app experience and explain which functions apply to the arrangement you are considering. The partner, not this page, should explain the practical terms of participation.
Which licence category should I discuss with a partner?
Discuss the category for the vehicle and service proposed by the partner. Colombia's listed categories distinguish B1 for private cars and C1 for public transport. A B1 licence category for a private car does not itself settle whether that car may be used to provide paid passenger transport. Ask the partner to identify the category and operating arrangement it expects, then verify that your own documents match.
For a motorcycle, the listed categories are A1 up to 125 cc and A2 above 125 cc. They do not answer whether a proposed passenger service is allowed.
What vehicle documents should I check before proceeding?
Check the vehicle's SOAT and its technical inspection status with the partner. SOAT is required for every vehicle. The technical inspection, known as RTM, is generally annual; the table of confirmed facts states that a new private car starts in its fifth year after registration, while a motorcycle starts after two years. Ask which rule applies to the specific vehicle and when its next inspection is due.
Driving without SOAT can lead to a D.2 penalty and immobilisation. An expired RTM can lead to a C.35 penalty and immobilisation. Resolve uncertain documents or dates before using the vehicle.
How are income and driving conditions determined?
Income and driving conditions depend on the contract with the Yango partner. Ask for the terms that would apply to you, including how amounts are calculated, when they are settled and who handles questions about the arrangement. No amount on this page is a personal forecast or a promise. Your own costs and the partner's terms also matter when you decide whether the arrangement suits you.
Can I invite another prospective driver?
If you see an invitation option, ask the partner whether it is currently available and what its conditions are. Share only the current, written terms with that person. Do not describe an invitation as a guaranteed payment or a shortcut through the partner's checks.
In which other cities can I explore partner driving?
You can also explore Medellín, Cali and Barranquilla. Use the relevant city page, such as partner driving in Barranquilla, as a starting point and ask a partner what is available there. A city page does not confirm current availability for every arrangement.
For broader information, see the Colombia driver page.
What should I expect from the partner relationship?
Expect the partner to explain its own terms and your role in the proposed arrangement. Yango is an information service, while transportation services are provided by third parties. Ask who will provide the transport service, who is responsible for the vehicle and which contact handles questions after you connect. Those answers belong in the partner's current materials, not in an assumed promise on this page.
How can I evaluate a Yango partner before connecting?
Evaluate the partner by asking for a clear explanation of its identity, contract and proposed vehicle arrangement. A list of names alone would not explain the terms that apply to you. Ask how to get the current written conditions and who handles questions. Where the written terms and a spoken explanation differ, ask the partner to reconcile them.
What else do prospective partner drivers ask?
These answers identify what to check before you decide.
Can I connect if I have no prior driving experience?
Ask a Yango partner about its current criteria. The partner can explain whether your documents and background meet its process. Do not infer acceptance from a general page or another person's experience.
How much income could I receive?
Ask the partner for its written calculation and contract terms. The amount can depend on the particular arrangement, so this page gives no estimate. Compare the terms with your own costs before deciding. A figure shown elsewhere should be checked against the current partner agreement.
What should I do before contacting a partner?
Identify the proposed vehicle, check your licence category and review the vehicle's SOAT and RTM status. Then use Become a driver to ask for the partner's current requirements. If you do not yet know which arrangement is proposed, ask that question first instead of assuming a document list applies to you.
Does a private car licence make paid passenger transport permissible?
No such conclusion follows from the B1 category alone. There is no national law legalising paid passenger transport through apps in private cars. Ask the partner about the proposed arrangement and seek qualified legal review where needed.
Yango is an information service; transportation services are provided by third parties.
